Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Hi everyone, I have a wordpress blog that is heavy on photos but short on text - most of my posts consist of a photo linking to a full gallery, and a short description of 1-4 sentences.  I've often read recommendations to noindex category pages, but in this case I'm wondering if it might be best to noindex the individual posts instead - I'm concerned that the short posts might seem like thin content to Google compared to the category pages which aggregate the posts.  Also, some of my categories reflect keywords that I'd like to rank well for.  I have about a dozen categories and close to 1000 posts.
